Sure, since you can make that DLL do whatever, you can also do things like that.
I also believe that cheaters will be using it.
It's the side effects this kind of project brings with it, but IMO it's no reason to leave it.
3. might solve it.

Or "Verses"...
It depends. n00bs are always around. We had n00bs making n00bish mods already, and n00bs will "move on" and create n00b DLLs. Again, 3. could be a solution for being able to avoid n00b libraries.
But minimal C++ knowledge doesn't mean n00b stuff.
IMO, this project can be helping some people to get into C++, because instead of opening a book with the first page listing 50 lines of hieroglyphs in order to get a window on the screen, they can easily get results in an already familiar environment.

Totally agreed. A storage for authentic (not necessarily useful, the term "useful" is very subjective concerning mods) DLLs should be the best way to filter out crap.
Your idea about only authentic people being allowed to post binaries doesn't sound bad either.
Completely avoiding the creation of crap will not be possible, unless I only give out the wrappers on demand (per E-Mail or something), but even that has its leaks.
